Super-Science Fiction, October 1959.
Cover by EMSH.
Ed Emshwiller (1925-900 was an illustrator whose work was ubiquitous in pulp science fiction magazines and paperbacks from the early 1950s to mid 1960s.
Surprisingly, he lived and worked in tract-housing suburb Levittown on Long Island–the polar opposite of the exotic, alien worlds he depicted on his canvases. He used his family and suburban neighbors as models for his otherworldly scenes.
In later life, he was a pioneer of digital animation.

It’s Pulp Saturday!!!
This week: Science Fiction from June 1940.
Cover by Frank R. Paul, best known for his 1920s covers for Amazing and long-running life-on-other-worlds series for that magazine. He helped create much of the iconography of science fiction.
Hollywood could learn a lot from this pulp cover. We need more movies about heroes rescuing babes tied up on giant Bunsen burners at a congress of diaper-wearing, blond-bearded, cyclops frogs as volcanoes rumble in the distance. Now that’s entertainment!
That is indeed entertainment. The ISFDB entry for this issue is here. The image comes to us via Two-Fisted Pulp.
